Hello User!

Answer: $659.83

Steps:

1.) Previous balance = 3529.30

APR = 18.6%, thus monthly interest rate = 18.6 / 12 = 1.55%

Previous balance + interest = 3529.30(1 + 0.0155) = 3584.00

New balance after transaction = 3584.00 + 148 = 3732.00

2.) Previous balance = 5834.53

APR = 20.4%, thus monthly interest rate = 1.7%

Previous balance - payment = 5834.53 - 150 = 5680.53

Balance + interest = 5634.53(1 + 0.017) = 5781.17

New balance after transaction = 5781.17 + 325 = 6106.17

3.) Total payment = 15264

Number of payments = 72 monthly payments

Monthly payment = 15264 / 72 = 212

4.) Amount bollowed = 7400 at 7% APR

Amount plus interest = 7400(1 + 0.07) = 7918

Monthly payment = 7918 / 12 = 659.83
